Drivers License Drama

You know, I always seem to be one of those fools that, yes I will admit, attracts drama...  LOL...  I had to go and renew my license because of COURSE I didn't realize until after the expiration date that it was actually expiring, dumb...  Just another blow at my turning 41 shot in the heart...  So here I go already stressed that they are going to arrest me for driving on an expired license to renew my expired license...  but I was an outlaw, and I was going to live the outlaw way.  I can be wild and crazy like that despite what my husband thinks.  He would probably expect me to walk in the front door of the DPS and throw myself on the mercy of the courts... (like I said... Drama)  but, hello, I have graduated from all the police shows and am now on to much greater things (Criminal Minds and behavioral analysis that is)...  I know the in's and out's of the justice system.  I have street credit...  although I will admit that I have been watching the show for a while and JUST figured out what an 'Unsub' is... minor detail.  I walk in to a room full of people facing the back wall in a roped off square with rope barriers around them, looking guilty and impatient...  and then I realized, I would soon be joining them....  my panic attack was about to begin...  it was then that I noticed the 'table of doom'  a large table with forms strewn in fumbled stacks all across the top, i started looking at the titles and quickly decided that I was okay, I had my mail in renewal form that I failed to mail in on time and surely this would suffice.  So I sit, with my outlaw gang and wait.   Unfortunately, that in itself was trauma because, being clausterphobic and all the only seat available was in the far corner at the end of the row in the very back, yes my friends, the absolute worse seat in the room, for me at least...  I had to start a mental conversation with myself to get me back there.  'You can do this, You HAVE to do this, You will do this...  these are your new friends....  move it big girl and suck it up, put on your big girl panties and do what you got to do', sometimes I really hate those conversations.  So I excuse myself across the backrow and take my seat...and so the story unfolds.  I am sitting with my back directly to the only two clerks they have and can hear each person that they help, and immediately figure out, these ladies ain't nice...  complete panic sets in.... later, much later like today, I will realize that this was actually a blessing because I realized everything I was doing wrong before I actually got to the counter...  which began with the clerk calling out 'number 62, number 62' which is when I notice everyone holding a little ticket...  Nice.  I get up, do all my excuse me agains because Heck if I was going to let someone walk in and grab a number before me when I had already been sitting for 20 minutes...  I searched high and low and finally asked someone sitting there and they pointed to a basket under a stack, with a roll of tickets, and I immediately get my first false sense of calmness... 

HA ha HA

I'm pretty sure God is telling me hang in there, but I never have been good at tying knots, shout out to my other BG's as we deal with sick family, electrical problems and water heaters that are spitting back....   you know who you are girlies...

don't worry, when the smoke clears, there will be much wine consumed!

Oh, the horror of it all...

My pool is a nice shade of light green... and it is still hot as he!! here... even though my husband has said he could get it clear again, I am finally throwing in the towel and trying to fix it myself, I think this may unfortunately become my new moto... UGH!

Me at the pool supply store (after visiting every other place in town trying to find filters):

Yes mam, I am looking for filters for my pool pump...

Is it an in ground pool?

Oh no, it's an above ground soft side pool, not too big...

we do have those also...

Do you have anything that can help it along to being clear again, it's starting to turn green

Tell your husband to put these two gallons of algae eater and then brush the sides

Um, I don't have a brush... I have a net... and can you tell ME how to do it

put these two gallons of algae eater then stir it around with the net and it should clear it up

okay

and make sure you do it after it's cooled down a bit

it never cools down

make sure its when the sun is going down

gotcha

good luck...

Thanks...
